Guillaumont, Patrick | Amprou, Jacky | Berg, Elliot | Pegatienan, Jacques
This country case study is one of ten prepared for the World Bank Development Economics Group, for its study of aid and reform in Africa. The purpose of the case studies is to review country reform experience and analyze the role of economic assistance in initiating and shaping the reform process. The paper is organized in seven chapters. Chapter 2 describes aid patterns in the Cote d'Ivoire-amounts, types, origins, and so forth. Chapter 3 gives an overview of the economic and institutional background to reform, the evolution of policy, and governance characteristics. Chapters 4 to 7 consider specific reform experiences and the role of aid. The authors focus on four areas: macroeconomic policy, trade liberalization, public expenditure reforms in health and education, and legal/judicial system reforms. Each chapter describes the reform agenda, comments on the effectiveness of the reforms, and analyzes the role of aid and aid donors in reform conception and processes. Main conclusions are set out in Chapter 8.
